knitr (version 1.15.1)

inline_expr: Wrap code using the inline R expression syntax

Description

This is a convenience function to write the "source code" of inline R expressions. For example, if you want to write `r 1+1` literally in an R Markdown document, you may write `` `r knitr::inline_expr('1+1')` ``; for Rnw documents, this may be \verb|\Sexpr{knitr::inline_expr{'1+1'}}|.

Usage

inline_expr(code, syntax)

Arguments

code
a character string of the inline R source code
syntax
a character string to specify the syntax, e.g. rnw, html, or md, etc; if not specified, it will be guessed from the knitting context

Value

A character string marked up using the inline R code syntax.

Examples

Run this code
library(knitr)
inline_expr("1+1", "rnw")
inline_expr("1+1", "html")
inline_expr("1+1", "md")
